forget about dvips, as far as i know, pdftex things made it back into dvips, so that can happen again this time; let's not carry the burden from the past
I am not aware of many things that dvips has taken over from pdftex. The only thing I know is the font subsetting module which origins from dvips. It was improved for pdftex and put back into dvips. Clearly, this was painless for dvips. As for other new stuff, I suggest that you don't just assume that dvips will follow everything. Better get in touch with Tomas Rokicki before doing that. Thomas
